Storage tanks can be either bolted tanks or welded tanks and can be over 60 m [200 ft] tall. They can store such materials as cement, wood chips, grain, sulfur, flower, sugar and more.
Coperion K-Tron offers a variety of level indicators and other inventory control mechanisms for use in storage tanks, receivers, and surge bins.
Rotating Level Indicators Specification Sheet
Proximity level switches detect the presence of material in a hopper or bin. They work on a capacitance basis and are capable of detecting most materials that are commonly handled pneumatically, including most chemicals, plastics and foods.
The vibrating rod is a vibration type point level control that detects high and low material level in bins, silos and hoppers.
The low level alarm is intended to be mounted on a machine hopper for indication of an emergency low level condition.

Coperion K-Tron’s Vacuum Probes and Probe Boxes provide a cost effective take-away device at the source of vacuum conveying systems, for free flowing materials.
Probe Boxes provide a simple take-away at the bottom of a silo, tank, or hopper. Most often, a maintenance gate is first bolted to the bottom flange of a silo or hopper, then a probe box. Then Horizontal Probes of various sizes can be attached to the Probe Box, and the probe is connected directly to the vacuum conveying line. Vertical Probes are usually attached to the conveying system with flexible hose so that the probe can be inserted into a box or drum of material.
The Coperion GAMMA-BEND NT was especially developed for dilute-phase conveying of pellets. The deflector elbow effectively prevents the formation of angel hair, which would otherwise be generated particularly in critical, right-angled direction changes.
The special geometric design of the bend keeps the pellets from sliding against the exterior wall, thus preventing the development of angel hair.
The GAMMA-BEND NT can be used universally in conveying systems, as there is no buildup of product cushions and thus always consistently empties with no residue. This is of vial importance, particularly for product changes.
High-precision weighing
The dynamic train scale for weighing trains and rail cars is now a minor classic! No wonder: intelligent solutions are worth their while and deliver cost and time savings.
Legal Weight Rail Scale pays its way as a legal-for-trade application from the outset. It provides high-precision rail car weighing using fast and legal-for-trade calibrated weighing of the goods during transit, irrespective of whether individual rail cars or whole trains are being weighed.
Liquids are some of the most valuable goods and when it comes to measuring them, every kilogram counts. They also move about more than any other type of goods, and can actually only be measured accurately when completely still.
Legal Weight Rail Scale has been optimized for weighing liquids while eliminating disturbing factors. This certified system enables you to weigh with precision almost any type of wagon or complete train sets. If not being weighed, wagons can travel at the permissible speed for the track.
The system is also optimized for monitoring wheel, axle and wagon load and the position of center of gravity of the wagon.
Applications:
Legal-for-trade dynamic weighing to OIML R 106, class 0.5 and 0.2. Can be used within a temperature range from –10°C to +40°C, for solids and liquids. Used in logistics as the basis for invoicing.
